AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D vs Ryzen 9 7950X: Tested in 15 Gaming Benchmarks (PROACTIVE)edit
The Ryzen 9 7950X3D is clearly the better gaming CPU. At the same time, it’s worth remembering that both chips deliver over 200 FPS in CPU-bound scenarios, even closing in on the 400 FPS mark in Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Dying Light 2. If you’re on a Ryzen 9 7950X, 7900X, or even the 7700X, you’re unlikely to “feel” a notable improvement in gaming performance with the 7950X3D. On the other hand, if you’re upgrading from a Ryzen 5000 part (barring the 5800X3D), you’re in for a treat.
